The Fabelmans hit so close to home it kind of broke me.
“If the horizon is at the bottom of the frame, it’s interesting. If the horizon is at the top of the frame, it’s interesting. If the horizon is in the middle, it’s boring as shit.”
What a picture!
We made a really cool movie in secret and I can't wait for everyone to see it. Thanks to everyone who worked on it and our incredible cast for making it happen. And thanks to

#TIFF22
How To Blow Up A Pipeline touches the third rail before extending a hand to its audience. It's filled with the kinds of faces & characters that I've been longing to see in mainstream movies, grappling with moral questions that blur the line between eco activism & eco "terrorism"
HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE, a 2022 TIFF breakout film, adapts Andreas Malm's incendiary nonfiction book and is a stunning wake-up call on the imminent dangers of the climate crisis.
Join us on Tuesday, 3/21 for a Live Stream Q&A after the film:
Daniel Goldhaber's HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE is a painful yet poetic cinematic portrait of a group of people committed to and willing to risk everything to move the needle. Screening at the 58th

"Daniel Goldhaber and Isa Mazzei’s psychosexual horror film [...] cuts right to the heart of an entire working mentality where dying on your feet is a feature, not a glitch."
Cam is one of the 50 masterpieces of the streaming era:
CAM
From the queer filmmaking duo of writer Isa Mazzei and director Daniel Goldhaber, CAM is a Lynchian nightmare about the tension between our digital and corporeal selves that also examines the myriad ways sex work is marginalized. It’s also soaked in bisexual lighting.

absolutely loved HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE, not as a political tract, though it’s certainly a moving endorsement, but as a shattering and loving portrait of a type of anarchist community that shaped my early life

CAM (on Netflix) is dazzling: a spiky, disorienting horror-thriller of digital fracture. Madeline Brewer’s camgirl duels a doppelgänger for control of her online identity, as questions of voyeurism, agency, and self-sacrifice swirl in a nightmarish, neon-lit ether. Watch it.
Can't stop thinking about Forrest Goodluck's performance in HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE – it's so committed, internal, raw, and generous. I was wondering which performance it reminded me of and very quickly realized the comp really is Jack Nicholson in FIVE EASY PIECES.

@cj_prin
It’s even better when they acquire your movie for just about what it cost to produce, then it’s a big hit and streams tens of millions of times on the platform and you see absolutely no residuals or financial remuneration for your labor.
Probably the only people I’d trust to unsuckificate the “21st century reimagining of horror classic” concept, a victory for sickos and degenerates everywhere:
The Fed has been aggressively raising interest rates and Big Tech is having an absolute meltdown... almost like having access to infinite free money wasn't a good thing...
Let’s take a 5 minute break from predicting what could be nominated for
#Oscars
next year. Having said that, HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE is, as they say, “award worthy”.
this film completely astonished me when i saw it at TIFF22.
@chronopictures
has crafted a raw urgent thriller that's a searing piece of cultural activism and a total blockbuster. getting to befriend him as a filmmaker has been the great joy of my year. i love this movie.
We are steaming the Atlantic Ocean. Temperatures are literally off the charts. We have never seen anything like this. This is dire. This is unprecedented. This is not a drill.
i also attended TIFF in person this year (my first time out of the states!) and wrote three of my favorite pieces. first was a review of

Happy pubday to me, my handsome son COLORS OF FILM: THE STORY OF CINEMA IN 50 PALETTES is out in the US today. Writing it transformed how I watch and think about movies, and I hope reading it can do the same. On sale here () or wherever fine books are sold!
